I'm not gonna lie, the entire Jurassic series has been such an awesome, fun, wild and utterly forgettable journey this summer. From the OG Jurassic Park to now, each film brought its own flavor of chaos, thrills, and moments that made me laugh, gasp, and just revel in the joy of dinosaurs running amok.This one stayed true to all of those vibes. The adventure, the thrill, the chaos... It's everything I have loved about this series. And even though people had mixed signals here (like pretty much every Jurassic film after the original hehe), I saw this one for what it was. Another true reminder of Dr. Chaos's warning at the very start of it all. "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." Thank you so much to everyone who joined me this summer for our Summertime Vibes Jurassic Park series! I have loved every film in its own way, and I can't wait to do a proper ranking on Instagram later next week. And for those of you who want to watch this one, without that insane rental price, here's the link to my folder with the movie: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X4KlqGepei0bt1aBfkJos8JtQm-7yjnF/view?usp=sharingAs always...

Up until this moment, my day had been in flux. Now I *know* what I'll be doing later! Thanks, Kali! 😁

"utterly forgettable..." teehee 😁

Good reaction! I’m not the biggest fan of the franchise but I did enjoy this one. I like how it plays with the suspense of the original and making the dinosaurs scary again. Not great but an entertaining film. This movie was directed by Garth Edwards who did Star Wars Rogue One but he also did Godzilla (2014). Godzilla (2014) is the start of The Monsterverse which is the current Godzilla/Kong universe made by Legendary Pictures with a similar structure to the MCU. It has 5 films so far with a sixth one coming out in 2027. I’m a huge Godzilla fan so I wanted to recommend these films. The films in the Monsterverse are Godzilla (2014), Kong: Skull Island, Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019), Godzilla vs Kong, & Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

My only problem with the Jurassic saga is that people want a perfect movie every time but people can’t just not enjoy Dinosaurs causing chaos. I understand that the stories ain’t all that great especially after the first one but I enjoyed it because of the great scenes in every movie. I especially loved the callbacks from the first movie in the sequels especially since we came back to Isla Nublar in Jurassic World. I understand the sequels doesn’t stand up to the original but people are setting up themselves with high expectations and not just enjoy them for what they are especially how I feel about other franchises like Star Wars.

This one was definitely playing against dinosaurs on easy mode hahaha. I also wouldn't have survived a "They're so lucky" drinking game LOL. Which makes me now start thinking which movie was 'hard mode' and the most unforgiving. But if there's one thing I've learned watching all these movies, it's the flying ones you gotta be the most worried about haha But I really liked this one! Other than Scarlett Johansson, since this was an entirely new cast of characters, it took me a while to warm up to everyone, and actually care about them. But then I started to get invested and really like this gang now! Would be cool to see a sequel now off of this movie, continuing the story of these characters. I'm only disappointed there weren't more Jeeps, as all the Jeep tie-in commercials would have lead us to believe LOL It's been an awesome summer with these movies! Literally feels like yesterday we were in awe of the first movie, watching the T-rex cause chaos, and now here we are at the end. Was a great journey!

I think you got it right Kali. A bit of a ludicrous plot and ridiculous actions by the characters, but they got the callback to the emotion of seeing the dinosaurs in the wild for the first time kind of right. Plus, that island looked great!!! A few years back I got a chance to go on a photo-safari in Africa and seeing all those animals - zebras, giraffes, elephants, lions, cheetahs, rhinos, hippos, etc. - in their natural habitat, with nothing but a few dozen yards separating you from them was an incredible - sometimes terrifying - but incredible and exhilarating experience. Going to a zoo has lost all its magic since. 😁

Before I comment on this film, I have to say something about your reaction, Kali. At the beginning, you kept trying to justify why you enjoyed this franchise. There are two problems with that. First, you're the creator, so you get to watch whatever you want! Second... dinosaurs are just freakin' cool! It's as simple as that! 😁 To the topic at hand, I pretty much agree with your assessment. I thought the film was fun, but I can see why many critics panned it: too many characters, too many plot holes, and extremely uneven writing. After initially meeting the recovery team, I felt that I had a decent handle on what the major plot points would be. Suddenly, we were randomly introduced to a completely separate group of characters on the sailboat, which immediately pulled me out of the story. And I never did figure out where the writers were trying to go with the boyfriend, Xavier. He seemed like an irresponsible, disrespectful jerk... who suddenly risked his life by jumping into dinosaur-infested waters to save his girlfriend! Okay, I guess I can believe that turn of events, but it didn't quite ring true to the character they had established. He continued to flip-flop between unpleasant and admirable for the rest of the story. Perhaps they intended for him to be the "plucky comic relief," but to me he just came across as an obnoxious twit. The mutant hybrids were pretty disgusting! Kali, you were't the only one who immediately thought of Alien when we first saw the D-Rex. I immediately thought they should have called it the X-Rex... for xenomorph! When it returned later in the film, it also reminded me a bit of the Rancor, the huge beast that lives under Jabba the Hutt's throne room in Return of the Jedi. Afterwards, I read that director Gareth Edwards revealed there were several inspirations behind the creature design, including... the Rancor and the Alien! As always, I loved the homages to the OG films. When Teresa disturbed the sleeping T-Rex while trying to retrieve the boat, she immediately grabbed a flashlight! When the Quetzalcoatlus attacked Zora and Dr. Loomis after finding them in her nest, all I could hear was Dr. Malcolm's voice: "Mommy's very angry!" There was even a sign reading "Docks ⇒". Random notes: * Altoids tins always remind me of Dr. Hank Pym. * After the Mosasaur's blood is retrieved, the following conversation ensues: Dr. Loomis (aka "Science Guy"): "Nice shot!" Zora (ScarJo): "Nice rocket!" Kali: Wow, Kali, clean it up! 🤣 * I hated the scene of the Mosasaur trying to scrape the boat against the shoreline. First, the land presumably slopes *outwards* underneath the water, meaning that the Mosasaur itself would be running into the ground. Second, how would an animal know to do that anyway?!? * OTOH, at least the boat didn't explode when it ran aground. That's such a ridiculous Hollywood cliche in most cases! * Kali, upon seeing the immense herd of Titanosaurs: "There's so many! Did they use rabbit DNA?" 🤣 * Seeing a T-Rex swim was very cool! * OTOH, I wasn't the least bit afraid that the T-Rex would eat Bella. This is Jurassic Park, for goodness sake! They're not gonna let a T-Rex eat a six-year old! * So, we're just supposed to accept a nearly inaccessible "ancient temple" on this random island without explanation? Cue the Church Lady: "How convenient!" 😔 * I like the red & blue compies! * Good line from Teresa: "I'm not hysterical... I'm homicidal!" At the very end, I have to admit that one of my final thoughts was how lame Dr. Loomis turned out to be. After all that they'd been through, and after all the signs she'd been sending, why in the world didn't he kiss ScarJo?!? Loser!

Thank you so much Kali for giving us that link, I just finished watching and yeah it's more of the same as you said - I guess at this point we realize the originality is long gone and they're kind of just guilty pleasures. They're still doing a great job with the effects and trying to bring in good actors, so sure why not - I'm always a sucker for a good action adventure. I think the Alien-like head was intentional, it's one of the most scary and disturbing images in movies and they were trying for that vibe I think. It's a look that goes beyond "animal" territory into dark, twisted, evilness. Happy you were able to find enjoyment with this franchise, a perfect idea for summer vibes.

So no boats or helicopters? Kali definitely likes to keep her feet (or tires) on the ground! 🏎️. 🏍️😉 I get the fear of being on a boat so far from land that you are days from shore. However, you should try sailing around a harbor. It’s fun, safe and can be really peaceful.

Walker

Wow! She looks absolutely stunning today. 😍The movie looks ok as well. But Kali looks like she’s ready to go to a forma event! Scar Jo isn’t bad either, lol. The visual effects are amazing for this movie, the mosasaurus is terrifying! Since it was real it’s even more frightening. I think they made them about 75% the size of a blue whale in this film. It’s like an aircraft carrier with teeth. However, it just doesn’t have the same heart that the original did. I don’t think any of them have completely lived up to the sense of awe and wonder you get it that first film.. Though Dr. chaos as you call him is always fun. You really can’t get a bad performance out of Jeff Goldblum.
